Florida 2016!

 (Stella)
Nile & Brittany & Ambellina and Stella, Mom Dad Dallin, and our 6 all traveled down to Panama City Beach for a week of fun in the sun!
(Lydia)
 It was so much fun, and especially because we had cousins there with us this year! Little Stella was such a good baby.
 This was our view.  Sorry if this is a picture overload, but we had so much fun and don't want to forget all the memories. The beach really is the best vacation with little kids.

 The McGee family was also there during that time, although they were in a different building, we had a lot fun with them too.   This is Benny on Grandpa's long board.
 Nile chillin under the McGee tent.


 Nile's buddy Austin was there for a day while we were. They took some family pictures for us. These are ones Nile took with my camera.






 Double trouble. These two were so cute!  Ambellina and Hannah


 We rented a big condo this time. It had 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a nice sized kitchen and living room area. It was great! We made a big shrimp and salmon feast one of the first nights and ate seafood almost all week.  Delicious!
 These little girls were so sweet. 






 These two are a month apart. They were so cute and fun.  Such little troopers being drug all over the place. 
 Dallin on the balcony.


 The sunsets did not disappoint.

 Nile and his $3 tripod find.  :)



 Brittany is so cute!

 Jordan is a pretty cool kid. He was fun to hang out with.

 This skinny lady had a baby 5 weeks before this.  She is amazing or a freak. I'm not sure which one yet.










 That ball just missed Nile. Close call.
 Syd doing her thing.

 Poor Hannah was so tired by the end of each day.

 Uncle Nile keeps things exciting though.

 The waves were so fun the last day we were there.

 Dallin had a sore throat. No fun.

 Syd and Lydia chilling under the umbrella.
 I was happy. None of our kids got burnt while we were there. Shade is great.




 Grandma Heath Houston



 Matt ran into town to fax some paperwork for his optometric license, and brought us Chick a Fill for dinner.  We love Chick fil A everywhere we go! Still banking in on those free meals! :)


 Amy and Rick

 Matt
 Heath taught Ambellina the fine art of ball jumping.



















 Houston





 Stella
 Lydia
 Grandpa



 Hannah is definitely a Grandpa's girl.


 She was so excited when she noticed her reflection in Grandpa's glasses. "Hannah in Grandpa's eyes!"
 Houston licking out the last of his chick fil a sauce, in true Houston style.


Brittany and Grandma
 These two.... they are just so cute!    "Meena and Honnah"

 She's just too cute!
 Our beach babe.

 She was so sad that it was time to go in.




 So many rolls.

 Houston
 Grandpa
 One of the McGee kids scratched their cornea, so Matt went to take a look. They paid him in popcicles. :)

 Hannah loved to be buried. She would ask to be buried as soon as she broke out. I think we did it about 7 times in a row once before she moved onto something else.
 Hannah and My polished toes. 








 Grandpa's inflatable paddle board was pretty fun.
 Hannah Ambellina and Lydia












 Ambellina did not like getting sand on her hands. She would want them washed off if it happened.
 Hannah was crazy girl and never stopped.

 They played so well together. They are 2 so every now and then someone would act like a 2 year old, but for the most part they were so sweet and cute!


 Uncle Nile digs really good bum spots in the sand.

 Matt & Houston
 Heath
 Houston caught a "baby fish"

 These boys had so much fun exploring.  They found crabs and tons of shells.












 This is what Stella and Lydia did most of the time.


 Ambellina Hannah Heath



 It was really fun to pour water on Uncle Nile's feet.


 Houston and Matt caught up on some disc.





 Matt caught several crabs.
 Hannah & Cegan
 Grandma & Hannah

 One night we had a star wars party out on the beach.  The kids were SO excited. There is definitely something magical about being out on the beach at night.
 We had planned to watch Episode 4 out on Grandpa's projector, but Nile forgot the movie in ND, so we just played out the movie instead.  We all had SO much fun.



 Lydia loved Stella's bouncy chair. She could really get it bouncing with all of her kicking.
 I love those cheeks.
These are the pictures Austin and Alex took for us.  We are so grateful to have them!




 Lydia's face cracks me up.






We had So much fun and can't wait to go back again. The beach really is the best vacation with little kids.
